The Park People's mission is to work with communities to plant trees and improve parks for a healthy, resilient future.
We improve parks by raising funds for park projects, like the reconstruction of the Cranmer Park Sundial & Plaza, and we support the urban forest through our programs: Denver Digs Trees, Mile High Tree Champions, TreeForce, Community Forester, and the Park Legacy program.

Our urban trees need our support to stay healthy and resilient during the winter months.
Throughout the fall, we will be watering, mulching and wrapping young trees so they are protected during harsh weather.
